The voice-over in your video can be customized for your viewers according to the viewer segment that they belong to. Using this method, you can provide different voice-overs to different audiences.
Here are two examples of how audience messaging is implemented in a voice-over:
1. | In a video promoting credit card benefits, the voice-over that the viewer hears (regarding bonus points) is based on the credit card that the viewer holds. The segment in this example is the credit card type. |
2. | In a video announcing the opening of a new supermarket, the voice-over that the viewer hears (describing the bakery, deli, or produce department) is based on the department favored by the viewer. The segment in this example is the department. |
Audience messaging is based on data that is passed to SundaySky for each viewer. To learn more on how data is used in the SundaySky Video Platform, see Video Personalization—How it Works.
